10. LINEAR PROGRAMMING PROBLEMS


Q01. A manufacturer of electronic circuits has a stock of 200 resistors, 120 transistors and 150
capacitors and is required to produce two types of circuits A and B. Type A requires 20
resistors, 10 transistors and 10 capacitors. Type B requires 10 resistors, 20 transistors and
30 capacitors. If the profit on type A circuit is Rs.50 and that of type B circuit is Rs.60,
formulate this as a linear programming problem so that the manufacturer can maximize
his profit. Also solve the L.P.P. graphically to find the maximum profit. The owner of this
manufacturing unit is knowingly producing defective circuitries with an aim of earning
more money. How would you stop him doing that by making him conscious of his
wrong act?
Q02. An oil company requires 13000, 20000, and 15000 barrels of high grade, medium grade and
low grade oil respectively. Refinery A produces 100, 300, and 200 barrels per day of high,
medium and low grade oil respectively whereas Refinery B produces 200, 400, and 100
barrels per day respectively. If A costs Rs.400 per day and B costs Rs.300per day to
operate, how many days should each refinery be run to minimize the cost of meetingrequirements?
Q03. In order to supplement daily diet, a person wishes to take some X and some Y tablets. The
contents of iron, calcium and vitamins in X and Y (in milligrams per tablet) are given as
below:
Tablets

The person needs at least 18mg of iron, 21mg of calcium and 16mg of vitamins. The price
of each tablet of X and Y is Rs.2 and Re.1 respectively. How many tablets of each should
the person take in order to satisfy the above requirement at the minimum cost?
Q04. Vishu has two courses to prepare for final examination. Each hour of study, he devotes to
course A is expected to return Rs.600 in terms of long range job benefits. Each hour
devoted to course B is expected to return Rs.300 in terms of long range job benefits. The
stores are closed and Vishu has only 15 chewing gums. He finds that he consumes one
chewing gums every 20 minutes while studying course B and every 12 minutes while
studying course A. Time is running short only four hours are left to prepare. Vishu feels
that he must devote at least 2 hours to study. Using linear programming determine an
optimal policy for Vishu that would maximize his return in terms of long range job
benefits.
